About this study

Official title: Efficiency and Acceptability of SIMEOX® Used Autonomously at Home for Bronchial Clearance in Patients With Cystic Fibrosis: Ancillary Study

Regular bronchial clearance is essential in patients with cystic fibrosis for their bronchial health. SIMEOX® (Physio-Assist, Aix en Provence, France) is an innovative medical device for the drainage of the bronchial tree. By changing the rheological properties of mucus, SIMEOX® helps to mobilize secretions and assists their transport to the upper airways. This technology is based on fundamental research on bronchial mucus rheology. At the present time, SIMEOX® device is mainly used over a short period at the time or after an exacerbation in healthcare structures (hospitals, physiotherapy practices, postcare, and rehabilitation units, etc…). The clinical effects observed in the short term encourages long-term autonomous use by the patients themselves. The overall objective of this study is to evaluate the efficiency and acceptability of SIMEOX® used at home by the patient himself for bronchial clearance in patients with cystic fibrosis.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Pulmonary static hyperinflation assessed by residual volume

    Relative variation in Pulmonary residual volume in the SIMEOX® treated group versus control group.

    Measured: Change from baseline at 3 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Use assessed by the duration of use of SIMEOX® device

    Assess the duration of uses of the device SIMEOX by the patient in the SIMEOX® treated group to assess the use by patient of the device.

    Measured: During 3 months of use

  2. Inspiratory capacity

    Relative variation of Inspiratory capacity in liter in the SIMEOX® treated group versus control group

    Measured: Change from baseline at 3 months

  3. Residual functional capacity (RFC)

    Relative variation of Residual functional capacity (RFC) in liter in the SIMEOX® treated group versus control group

    Measured: Change from baseline at 3 months

  4. Total lung capacity (TLC)

    Relative variation of Total lung capacity (TLC) in liter in the SIMEOX® treated group versus control group

    Measured: Change from baseline at 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing SIMEOX in people with Pulmonary Cystic Fibrosis, run by Physio-Assist at 5 sites in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Jan 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pulmonary static hyperinflation assessed by residual volume (time frame: Change from baseline at 3 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 Jan 2022.
